Ramblin' Man Countdown - Blues Pills 19 July 2015

Today we start looking forward to Ramblin' Man and in particular next Sunday when most of the WRC will be attending. As usual it is difficult to choose which one of the seven bands on each of the three stages to see during the day (see itinerary). So playing devil's advocate we are going to go for the Classic Rock Stage first up at 1pm. Blues Pills (our Vid Of The Day) are a Swedish rock band, formed in Örebro in 2011, although they released their first album three years later. In 2011, half-brothers Zack Anderson (bass) and Cory Berry (drums), formerly of Radio Moscow, were in Iowa and met singer Elin Larsson, who was staying in California. Together they recorded two demo tracks and published them on YouTube, after which label 'Crusher Records' offered them a deal. The band toured Spain and France, where they met 16-year-old guitarist Dorian Sorriaux, whom they invited to Örebro and made a member of the band. The name of the band came from their friend, Jens Heide, who had a music blog called BluesPillz with obscure 60's and 70's underground music!
